General Questions
What is CBD (cannabidiol)?
CBD or cannabidiol is one of many naturally occurring phytocannabinoids compounds found in the hemp plant. The extracted oil used for Dream-Relief formulations contains CBD as well as some minor cannabinoids like CBDV, and CBG. Of importance to many people is how the cannabinoid CBD supports a sense of peace and wellness in their personal lives. For years, researchers across the globe have been looking at the possible therapeutic uses of CBD.
Unlike the delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol, more commonly known as THC, CBD by federal mandate must be non-psychotic, the measured THC can not to exceed 0.3%, so it does not have the “High” effect commonly associated with the marijuana plant. This has led to CBD being safely used in social environments for therapeutic or medicinal purposes. CBD can be consumed in a number of different forms, one of the most common being CBD oil.
Is CBD legal?
CBD products formulated from industrial cannabis plant that measure less than 0.3% THC content are legal in all 50 states, as long as the industrial hemp used in the process is grown and cultivated as authorized by the Farm Bill. Dream-Relief’s products are manufactured in Colorado from Colorado grown industrial hemp farms registered with and following all federal and state laws.
The passage of the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018 clarified hemp laws and removed hemp (defined as cannabis with less than 0.3% Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) the cannabinoid associated with Marijuana) from Schedule I controlled substances. This effectively made this type of cannabis hemp an ordinary agricultural commodity fully legal across the United States. Many individual states are also passing their own legislation to further legalize hemp and CBD products. You do not need a prescription to buy CBD products.
What are the important things to consider when buying CBD products?
In our view when you are buying CBD products, it’s important to focus on the quality of the CBD above all else. Where is the hemp sourced? Is it organic and natural? Does the company provide independently lab-verified test results for each product it sells?
Basically, it’s about finding the right product type for your personal wellness goals and lifestyle needs. Not all CBD products are the same, so taking the time to research companies and trying different products is important to finding what works right for your body’s needs, your personal “sweet spot”.
How much CBD should you take and how often?
If you’re just starting with Dream-Relief CBD; take the recommended serving as indicated on the label for 4 to 6 weeks. If you’re not where you want to be relative to your goals, we suggest increasing your dosage and then moving up to the next higher level of strength. Be Consistent: For any wellness support product to work properly, it must be taken regularly. Missing days or servings can affect your ability to help support your body and personal wellness goals.
What’s the most effective way to take CBD?
CBD can be taken sublingually as an oil, applied topically as a cream or lotion, or orally as a soft gel, or an edible gummy or chew. Dream-Relief’s CBD is versatile and that is why we offer a range of products all designed to adapt to any lifestyle. It can be added to water or drinks, too.
Will CBD make me feel "high?"
No. You cannot get that “high” feeling from Dream-Relief broad spectrum CBD oil product. The CBD used in Dream-Relief’s offerings is from industrial hemp grown in Colorado and, being broad spectrum formulations, they are naturally THC-free, meaning they have no measurable THC.
Will CBD make me fail a drug test?
Even though our products are all THC-free, Dream-Relief strongly encourages you to talk with your employer or healthcare provider if this is a concern.
If you are taking Dream-Relief products, as with any cannabis-based product, there is always the possibility of triggering a positive drug test. The influencing factors are not only the amount and/or the length of time the product has been taken, but also other dependencies including individual metabolism rates as well as the type and/or sensitivity of the specific test. Drug tests vary and they often only consider cannabinoids in general. They are not uniform nor consistent.
What’s the difference between CBD from hemp and CBD from marijuana?
Both hemp and marijuana are from the same genus and species (cannabis sativa). The primary difference most rely on to distinguish hemp from marijuana is marijuana contains high amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC – the compound that gets users “high” and it has lower non-psychoactive cannabinoids. Whereas hemp plants are valued because of their high content of non-psychoactive cannabinoids, particularly CBD, and other naturally occurring phytocannabinoids with very limited THC. By law CBD must measure 0.3% or less of THC content. CBD, whether taken from hemp or marijuana plants is the exact same compound.
Are there any negative side effects?
CBD products are safe for most people having very few, if any, potential side effects. The vast majority of people take CBD without ever experiencing any unpleasant effects at all, and the rare few who do will most likely experience only minor symptoms such as mild stomach upset or dry mouth. These can be eased by taking your CBD product with food and drinking plenty of water.
Do you test your products for quality and safety?
Yes. Dream-Relief prides itself in having the highest standards for quality, purity and potency. All of our products are third party tested to confirm there are no contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, or organic matter like mold or bacteria.
We source our CBD ingredients from the largest grower, manufacturer and distributer of naturally hemp derived THC-Free Cannabinoids in the U.S. As an ISO 9001.2015 manufacturer (International Standards Organization), they have the demonstrated ability to consistently provide products and services that meet all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. This ensures Dream-Relief products are from a source using high quality management standards for all aspects of their business.
Where do you source your CBD from?
All of Dream-Relief products are sourced from organic, high-quality Industrial hemp grown on environmentally conscious and sustainable land in Colorado, meaning the crops are grown free of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides.
What is the difference between broad spectrum, full spectrum, and isolate CBD?
There are many types of CBD oil on the market, including full spectrum CBD oil, broad spectrum CBD oil, and CBD isolate. Broad spectrum CBD oils are made with whole plant hemp extracts and include most hemp-derived cannabinoids, except it’s refined an additional step to remove as much of the THC cannabinoid as possible from the final product. On the other hand, full spectrum CBD oil is essentially the same as broad spectrum except it has an allowance that the CBD oil can contain THC but it must be measured at less than 0.3%. In contrast, some hemp oil products are made from isolate, which is just one singular compound (such as CBD) added to a carrier oil, and therefore does not contain any of the other beneficial phytonutrients or cannabinoids.

What is the entourage effect?
This sensation is the result of the many compounds in our THC-free broad spectrum CBD and how they interact with your body to produce a stronger influence than any one of those components might produce alone. The different premium compounds in our formulations amplify each other’s chemistry making Dream-Relief’s products more effective in addressing unwanted symptoms. The entourage effect in action! This means you’re getting more from the Dream-Relief product than taking something containing only a single cannabinoid compound.
What is the Endocannabinoid System (ECS)?
The cannabinoids in Dream-Relief CBD work with a series of receptors in the body known as the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Dream-Relief CBD works with this internal system which is a complex network of cannabinoid receptors and neurotransmitters located in the brain, central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, and immune system; all involved in several important functions. These include everything from regulating the body’s anti-swelling response, immune system, appetite, mood, stress levels, REM schedule and more. Basically, the ECS helps keep your body’s natural rhythms in biological balance.
Your body makes its own cannabinoids which are called endocannabinoids. When the hemp plants make this type of compound, they’re called phytocannabinoids. CBD is one of over a hundred of different types of phytocannabinoids found in hemp plants. New research is always emerging that explores links between the body’s physical, mental, and even emotional well-being and the interaction of the ECS. THC-free broad spectrum whole-plant CBD formulations like Dream-Relief have been shown to work with your ECS to alleviate unwanted symptoms such as joint and muscle aches, stress and tension as well as restlessness.
